He'll Twist His Head Right Off

"I heard she married into a wealthy family..."

Hearing Madam Chen's words, Jiang Lin wiped his face deeply...

Well, how should I put it?

At once...

It was quite sudden...

Jiang Lin initially thought that Little Jia's childhood playmate had been discouraged by Little Jia's talent, lost confidence in martial arts, and then became despondent, lamenting, "Why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?"

The last girl, Min, disappeared from the world and was forgotten by everyone.

However, I never expected to marry into a wealthy family; this was something I never anticipated...

Unaware of the several speechless ellipses that appeared above Jiang Lin's head, Madam Chen continued:

"When we were little, Chen Yu lived next door to us. We played together and practiced boxing together. She was born in the basket next door."

They made a pact to become the most powerful Martial Warrior in the world.

Indeed, they do possess this talent.

However, Little Jia's growth was too fast. One round of Little Jia's training was equivalent to more than ten rounds for other geniuses. Next to Little Jia, Xiao Yu dimmed, like the light of the moon and the firefly.

Even though Little Jia was still very young, she must have sensed something. At that time Little Jia deliberately suppressed her cultivation level.

Even so, she still defeated Xiaoyu's Fourth Realm with a single punch while only at the Martial Warrior Second Realm.

After that word, Xiaoyu stopped practicing boxing.

I heard that she has now married into one of the most prestigious families in Ten Thousand Mile City, and having dispersed her true energy to become Qi Refiner, she is now approaching the Dragon Gate Realm.

"..."

"After that, Little Jia was depressed for a long time, especially since almost the entire martial arts of Ten Thousand Mile City was clinging to Little Jia, as if she wouldn't leave unless Little Jia absorbed it, which made Little Jia even more annoyed."

Finally, Little Jia told me that she missed her grandma and wanted to go to her grandma's house.

My husband and I both knew that Little Jia was actually feeling very guilty. At the time, I didn't know how to comfort her, so I could only let my husband take Little Jia away from Ten Thousand Mile City.

Later, I also left.

For some reason, I encountered the previous leader of the Sun Moon Sect.

I made a deal with her.

Then my husband and I moved to the Sun Moon Sect with our Little Jia.

This place is actually quite nice.

Listening to Madam Chen's account, and looking at the pure girl whose fist intent flowed without any hindrance.

Recalling her carefree and adorable appearance, I never imagined that this cheerful and innocent girl had such worries.

"Has Little Jia still not gotten over it?"

Jiang Lin asked.

Madam Chen shook her head, then smiled as she looked at Jiang Lin:

"She's much better now. Little Jia was confused for a long time, but while she was at her grandmother's house, Little Jia suddenly became much more cheerful and started practicing boxing again."

Little Jia was able to recover because of one person.

But now, precisely because of this person, she has become her bottleneck.

Who is that person?

Madam Chen glanced at Jiang Lin, smiled, and said nothing more.

"Forget it, let it be a bottleneck. Whether you're Martial Warrior or a cultivator, whose cultivation is ever smooth sailing? Who can truly be free of distractions and progress unimpeded on the path of martial arts and immortal cultivation?"

Even if there were truly no obstacles, what's there to admire in such Martial Warrior, or in such a cultivated immortal?

"Eh? And Madam Chen is...?"

Jiang Lin was a little confused. If Madam Chen wanted him to comfort Little Jia, he would definitely give it a try.

Although he lacked confidence, and this touched upon Little Jia's deepest feelings, he was likely to get a good beating from Little Jia.

However, Madam Chen has helped me so much, it would be unreasonable not to help her with this small favor.

Besides, the fact that Madam Chen told her such a secret about Little Jia meant that she trusted her.

But it seems that Madam Chen didn't mean that.

Why is Madam Chen saying all this...?

"I'm telling you all this so you can better understand Little Jia. I came to you to practice your boxing. You're a member of the Chen Manor, and practically my disciple. If you slack off, I won't let you off the hook."

Seeing Jiang Lin's confusion, Mother Chen smiled.

Mother Chen's domineering tone warmed Jiang Lin's heart, and he almost wanted to call her "Mom" right away.

"However, before we begin practicing, Jiang Lin, I have a question for you."

"Please speak, Madam Chen."

Seeing Mother Chen's serious expression, Jiang Lin suppressed his urge to call her "Mom."

Moreover, Jiang Lin felt that if he really shouted it out, Uncle Chen would never forgive him if he found out...

"In the path of martial arts, are you confident you can surpass Little Jia?"

"No!"

"..."

For a moment, apart from the continuous explosions in the distance, a deep silence fell between Jiang Lin and Madam Chen...

Madam Chen hadn't expected the young man to answer so readily.

However, this was indeed Jiang Lin's honest opinion.

Martial arts surpasses the path of Little Jia?

This is no joke...

Little Jia is the system-certified protagonist, the future number one martial artist, and her initial purpose in practicing boxing was to strengthen her physique (for better kidney health).

Even when she became somewhat serious about martial arts later on, she didn't want her previous hardships (being repeatedly beaten by Madam Chen, Little Jia, and Girl Xiao Hong) to be wasted.

With my half-baked mentality, if I could surpass Little Jia's achievements, I would feel it would be disrespectful to her.

Of course, Jiang Lin had also considered surpassing Little Jia and then completely dominating Little Jia...

Let Niannian know that Daddy is the strongest~~~

However... this is just a thought, and Jiang Lin intends to focus on swordsmanship, not martial arts...

"Can't you even hesitate for a moment?"

Looking at Jiang Lin, Madam Chen couldn't help but smile.

"Well... since Madam Chen is asking me so seriously, I can't very well lie..."

Jiang Lin was also somewhat embarrassed.

However, Jiang Lin felt that Madam Chen was afraid that she would lose confidence in her martial arts later on because of Little Jia by her side, which was why she asked this question.

"In that case, let me ask you a different question. If one day, Little Jia needs you to deliver a punch for her, but that person is much stronger than you, would you be willing?"

"Of course," Jiang Lin replied instantly, "I'll twist his head off!"

Looking directly into Jiang Lin's eyes, although he was usually quite frivolous, at this moment, Madam Chen felt that perhaps she could truly entrust her Little Jia's marriage to him.

"Then I'm relieved. Alright, practice your fist techniques well. You can come out of the Secret Realm after you reach the Fourth Realm."

After saying that, Madam Chen placed her slender hand on Jiang Lin's back and gave him a gentle push. Like a cannonball, Jiang Lin flew directly towards a deity who was only covered in armor and wielding Giant Axe.

Before Jiang Lin could react, the deity had already brought down an axe.

Seeing Jiang Lin, relying solely on his Martial Warrior Second Realm martial arts realm, locked in a fierce battle with a Fourth Realm deity (a one-sided defeat), Mother Chen couldn't help but smile.

"Never mind, I'd better not tell him yet."
